NSDAP eagle emblem, made from bronze. This was probably once mounted onto a plaque or as part of a decorative item, and then removed with triangular hooks being soldered and added on. The details of this piece are very well sculpted and the proportions symmetrically reproduced. The outlines of this piece are not perfect, indicated that an amount of manual handwork was involved in the manufacturing process after this piece was cast from bronze. From author's own collection.
